Hurricane Isaias threatens Georgia Tech vs. Duke football game

The upcoming college football matchup between the Duke Blue Devils and the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets at Bobby Dodd Stadium faces potential disruption due to Hurricane Isaias. The storm, which has strengthened into a category two hurricane, is expected to impact the Southeast, including Georgia.

Meteorologists warn that the game could face heavy rain, winds reaching up to 50 mph, and the possibility of isolated tornadoes in Atlanta on Saturday afternoon. Such conditions may lead to flooding or power outages, prompting speculation that the kickoff time could be delayed until later in the evening.

On the field, the undefeated Duke Blue Devils (4-0) enter the game following a significant victory over William & Mary. Georgia Tech (1-3) seeks to recover from a recent loss to Stanford.
